Glow Sticks
by Debra Burgess

Laughter fills my whole being when I see a vision of who we are.glow sticks! Bright and luminescent. With childlike wonder, I must know more, and I set out to seek better understanding.

My search takes me to the science firstA glow stick uses a translucent plastic tube containing isolated substances which when combined make light through a chemical reaction-induced chemiluminescence which does not require an electrical power source. Although intriguing, I find the science too wordy for my search of better understanding; time to break it down for my simple wonder.

Translucent teaches me of how light is allowed to pass through diffusely. I think of warm windows with sheer curtains on a winter night. To be translucent then I have nothing to hide about who I am.

Substance teaches me of its essential nature, the gist or heart of a matter. I think of those things that really matter to me in life; love, hope, honesty, trust and relationship. To be of substance then I have to have character built upon the foundation of Christ.

Light teaches me of how it makes things visible and gives illumination. All colors depend on light, so creativity is in this brilliant blaze. I think of holiness, revelation, sincerity and truth.

Laughter fills me again. We are glow sticks! We were born to go into the shadows; places where our luminescence lights up the darkest corners.

I love to encourage the heart of people to be who they are meant to be in Christ, individually made and uniquely designed.
